What inspires you and how do you envision the design for your business?

The South Carolina Office of the Attorney General is sponsoring this contest. The purpose of this project is to re-design the layout of website for this State agency and update the Agency's web presence with a modernized professional design. The interface must allow users to quickly and intuitively navigate the site and find information relative to the functionality of our office.

Relative Background Information

Â

Each state has its own Attorney General. In South Carolina, the Honorable Henry McMaster serves as the current Attorney General. The functional duties, responsibilities and organization of Attorneys General offices are varied and different from state to state depending on the organization and/or structure of the respective state government. Some of the Attorneys General are appointed officials, while others, as in the case of South Carolina, are elected. In all states, this official is the chief legal officer and criminal prosecutor for the state and thus represents the state in all litigation to which the state is a party. It is the responsibility of the person holding this office to protect all citizens of the state. In some states, this agency houses the responsibility of the State Police and the State Law Enforcement. These duties are not held under our office in the State of South Carolina. The key functional areas of our agency are described on our current website at http://www.scattorneygeneral.com.

This project is to re-design the South Carolina Attorney Generalâ€™s website. The goal of this project is to provide a fresh, new interface that allows users to quickly find information.

Â

Â

Â

The result of this contest will be to deliver a new front page for the website and a template to use for the rest of the site. We will then use the template to build out the rest of the pages.

Â

Â

Â

The front page of the new design should provide ways to highlight news and current cases. The current page shows a full news story. The new design needs to include a place for the latest news. The news section does not need to be as large or prominent as it is now. The front page design must have a method to highlight current cases. This can be done via a flash slide show (Flash SlideShowPro, for example), graphic banners, or other methods.

Â

Â

Â

The template needs to be designed in a way to for users to easily distinguish which section of the site they are currently browsing. This can be done via breadcrumbs, color changes, headers, etc.
